File patterns support these styles: fnmatch, shell, regular expressions,
path prefixes and path full-matches. By default, fnmatch is used for
``--exclude`` patterns and shell-style is used for the experimental
``--pattern`` option. For commands that support patterns in their

A root path starts with the prefix `R`, followed by a path (a plain path, not a
file pattern). An include rule starts with the prefix +, an exclude rule starts
with the prefix -, an exclude-norecurse rule starts with !, all followed by a pattern.
